Universities are higher education institutions that produce knowledge, which is vital for the future of a country, and also prepare our youth for life by transferring this knowledge to new generations.
Our universities, which have a critical importance for our country to reach the level of contemporary civilization, have to be successful in both fields.
It is the duty of our universities to produce scientific knowledge and provide our country with a respectable position within the international scientific community, as well as train our youth in accordance with the requirements of the age and provide them with the necessary skills.
Our universities should take place more on behalf of our country in the international citation indexes with the studies they have conducted and the scientific articles they have published.
Our universities need to raise modern generations who understand the importance of knowledge, research, follow technological developments, produce solutions to problems, have a broad perspective, respect ideas, and are tolerant.
Istanbul Ticaret University is a foundation university established as a social responsibility project of the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce (ITO), one of the largest professional organizations in the world, with its 141-year history and more than 700 thousand members.
Our University, which aims to serve the society in accordance with the aims and principles of the foundations, provides great opportunities for its students to be successful in the business world as well in academic life, and strives to increase these opportunities with each passing day.
As the Board of Trustees of Istanbul Ticaret University, all our efforts are to ensure that the students of Istanbul Ticaret University are raised as qualified manpower and leaders of Turkish business life, just as the members of ITO are the leaders of the Turkish economy.
I believe that our graduates will take a role in the production and development process of Türkiye, take responsibility, and be the pride of our country also in the coming period, as they have done so far.
